Podcast Episode:
Nanette Fridman, Founder, discusses her work consulting with many different Jewish organizations and what Jewish professionals could do when facing difficult situations.
Thanks Michelle and Nanette for this engaging conversation
You were as always spot on. I will subscribe to this podcast as I am so fascinated by how this field has evolved. I still have all the vision statements you wrote when you served on my board all those years ago. Imagine our Jewish world if we could get all MOT to be meaningfullly engaged in one clear small task. But that glass ceiling still looms very large in our world.
